Reduction encompasses the act or process of diminishing something in size, quantity, degree, or intensity.
It often implies a lessening of something from a previous or expected level. The term can apply to physical objects, abstract concepts, or complex systems. It may involve simplification, condensing, or downsizing, aimed at making something more manageable, efficient, or understandable.
It is also a chemical process where a substance gains electrons, reducing its oxidation state. More broadly, it signifies any action that brings about a decrease or minimization, potentially addressing issues such as overspending or environmental impact.
